UPDATE: We just got word from Kelis' rep, confirming that Kelis did NOT say anything offensive about Katy. In fact, the rep pointed out she has not done any press in recent weeks, so she couldn't have said anything about Katy. The quote is false.

Id have to agree with Kelis. Maybe it has more to do that Katy Perry was molded into Katy Perry and that isnt who she really is. I remember her E special. Basically what she was jiving before all Her past two albums wasnt really who she was and they stated how they had to change her into something different for break-out success…And if thats the case I can understand Kelis…Who had an album out last year and has been touring non stop. Katy Perry isnt the worst thing in pop music but she certainly isnt the best…

Just because Katy Perry tied for most hits with Michael Jackson doesn't mean that she has the same significance that Michael had at the time and that he still continues to have. Her music is not even comparable to Michael. It is cheap cookie cutter pop. It's fun to hear but there is no significance in her brand. It only upsets me that they try to compare her to Michael now just because she tied some record. Stop it!

i LOVE katy perry as a person. and i really enjoyed a few of her songs. some of them aren't so great, but there's not doubting the girl is talented, whether you're into her music or not. kelis is a nobody? which means this comment will not be affecting katy in the slightest.

just because a lot of people like and buy it it and because it's been featured on GLEE does NOT mean it's "good music"… it simply means that there are a lot of people out there with bad taste. katy perry is a blow up doll with access to autotune. kelis is entitled to her opinion! #milkshakinguptheweb

I AGREE 100% with Kelis… it's about time some has the balls to call out on Katy Perry's shit for music. Katy started out being so different then what she is now and sold out in a heartbeat. "Milkshake" may be a one hit wonder but I'd rather listen to that then any of katy Perry's cheesy songs…

Ha ha, Tea Pot, meet Kettle! However, just because Kelis isn't exactly the "John Lennon of Our Generation" doesn't mean she isn't a music lover and isn't entitled to her opinion. Her very accurate opinion.

Ummm…just because the masses listen to pr watches something does not mean that it is not crap. May I direct your attention to any of the Real Housewives series, The Jerry Springer Show, Judge Judy and so on and so forth.

Yeaahhhhh…. considering the 'source' on this is the Daily Star I think we should take this with a massive pinch of salt. The Daily Star are a tabloid mainly known for making up stories or massively misrepresenting them.

Well…… Kelis's latest album is one of the best I have ever heard, honestly, and Katie Perry is "label created", and not a real artist. But Katie Perry isn't a bad person and there is no reason to diss her, people like her pop music too (I don't) but everyone has their own tastes which is great!

Her music may be tied with MJ for most hits off one album, but she isn't tied with him on quality or significance of the music and definitely not when it comes to talent. It is pop crap. The music Kelis has made is crap too, but doesn't mean she isn't right.

PREACH KELIS!! Umm Perez, Kelis only says what most people 2ith actual good music taste already know. Katy's music is pure bubble gum music and those five #1s shows how effed up the music industry of today truly is.

Just because this Kelis person isn't as famous or has as many hits as Katy doesn't mean her opinion doesn't matter. There are plenty of people who think Katy Perry is crap that aren't musicians or singers. Crap is crap anyone can point that out.

KATY PERRY IS CRAPOLA!!!!!!!!! SHE MAKES DISNEY-ESQUE STYLE KINDERGARTEN MUSIC FOR 8 YR OLDS. IT'S JUST THE STUPID RETARDED STANS OF HERS THAT DONT REALIZE. JUST CUZ SHE TIES MJ DOESNT MEAN HER MUSIC IS AS INFLUENTIAL OR THE SAME FANBASE WHO BOUGHT. KATY HAS RETARDED MORONS AS STANS. MJ'S STANS ACTUALLY GREW UP TO BE SOMETHING PASS THE 5 IQ THAT KATY PERRY'S FANS HAVE. TRUTH!!!

I don't know if she did say that or if she didn't say that….but who cares. that's the truth. katy perry is crap. i mean her music is so cheesy. like, it has no meaning. it's just sad. and since america has terrible taste in music….well, they like her crappy music. it's really sad that america doesn't know what good music is. instead everyone is listening to overrated katy perry and transgendered lady gaga. it's really gross. katy perry always looks so stupid in her outfits.you'd think for a woman in her 30's she would dress more nice. lol she dresses like a freakin prostitute. she's probably one anyways.

Haha you must feel like an idiot now, perez, trying to diss Kelis (btw- she's pretty awesome in my book) :p
Plus you're such a hypocrite. Aren't you the same one that was saying how Katy's music isn't that good either, and that she's not even in the same league as Micheal Jackson?
Plus you know that Kelis is right, and most people agree with her. Shitty Perry is shit. Enough said :]

Perez you need to shut the fuck up with the whole her tying MJ’s record. Okay. She would not have reached her fifth #1 had she not enlisted rappers. She is a complete sell out. You can’t fucking compare her shitty as music to MJ’s. Mj’s singles and album Bad are LEGENDARY. Katy Perry’s music is just cheap rehashed and recycled Dr. Luke beats. And you know it’s true or else her album would be selling and it IS NOT. 1.7 million in the US? That is PATHETIC. Bad Has sold over 8 million in the US and 32 million + worldwide. Meanwhile Slutty Perry’s Teenage Dream hasn’t even broken 4 million worldwide. You can’t compare her to MJ and likewise for her music and his. And these stupidass little fans above need to shut the fuck. Bitch can’t sing, can’t dance and can’t sell albums. All she has is the 5 #1’s. And that only puts her in the league with Rihanna, a Singles Queen. People will still remember MJ’s Bad and it’s songs generations from now, and Katy Perry will just be another lost figment of the music industry. SO SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!! Her music IS SHIT.

STOP FUCKING COMPARING KATYS SHIT TO MICHAELS MUSIC PEREZ. 5 #1 hits now are invaluable thanks to katy perry. you make a really bad name for gays perez, the majority of the gays i know cant stand katy perrys shit because they actually know what real fuckin music is, unlike yourself.

Why don't you wait until you hear from people's reps BEFORE you put out these stories? Oh that's right, because you like to stir up shit. You get all this hate and anger going at people and then find out that no one actually said anything and go "Oops!" And all it does is get a war going! HOW IS THIS NOT BULLYING?

lol everyone picks on Katy Perry even though Rihanna, Gaga, Britney, Kei$a etc. release pop shit too. I don't get it.. I know Katy does make herself a easy target. She dresses like a complete idiot now and I don't like Gaga but at the VMA's, the way Katy dressed just screamed Gaga.. I hate carbon copies of shit.. She couldn't even fucking move with that head piece.. it is all for show like everyone else.. that is not who she is or who they are.. it is fake.. I don't know why she wants to be a copy too and make herself look like such a fool..not to mention her doing that stupid planking shit she did and supporting Rebecca Black and putting her in her video.. it's like the loser trying to do everything to seem cool Dx uhg!
as for her music.. it is that popcorn, bubble gum, candy shit that everyone likes but then forgets.. it's just catchy songs that is all.. She must be doing something right because Kelis has only had one hit.. so she doesn't have much room to talk..
p.s. Katy Perry your lucky hair is NOT Lilac or lavender whatever the fuck, it is Raseberry… you are color blind..

Katy Perry IS crap though, from start to finish. Kelis is having a moment, but her contribution has always been unique and powerful. We wouldn't have a lot of the pop/hip-hop/r&b/tech crossover if it wasn't for her and the Neptunes. She was really their first mainstream artist.

And Kelis has had how many it songs? I think someone is just jealous. Katy sings fun happy music that is dance to in the club. I believe she enjoys doing the music that she does and she really loves her fans.

LOL Kelis hit it spot on. Also, Kelis was dressing weird and out of the box before these pop tarts even came on the scene.. if you google some of Kelis' earlier outfit choices and looks.. and then google Kelis and Lady gaga images, you will see that Lady gaga directly knocked off so many of her looks. These broads just throw their names on anything all in the sake of earning a buck.

SHE IS CRAP……ALSO..If you are over the age of 15 and like her music…I JUDGE YOU TO BE SHALLOW AND STUPID..It's a F8cking SHAME that crap music like hers is tying records set by someone like Michael Jackson. Goes to show how horrible the music industry is now a days…***Katy Perry is also the worst performer on earth…she barely moves and when she does..it's painful to watch.

Regardless of if Kelis made the comment or not, it's absolutely true. I know Perez is friends with Katy & is biased, but the reality is that her music is TOTAL GARBAGE! It's manufactured, forgetabble pop, not to mention that Katy's voice sounds like a cat in heat. She's terrible, sorry.

kelis is a fuckin' genius sheeple!! fact. just an observation…you notice the only way katy perry can get any comments is when pez head sets up a fake ass war between two artists?? the fact is that katy perry is kind of a big joke…she is a bunch of forgettable singles, no iconic moments and rihanna already covers this territory better. dkfdjkfjijfiefdkfjkd dkkdk kdkdk pip pip poW!!

Re: chickawickabob – kelis is not jealous and even if she were it wouldn't make what she said untrue, ya fuckin' cum collector. the fact is katy's singles are all pretty forgettable. last friday night?? are you insane??

Whether she said this or not. Kelis is a mole. She sucks. Shes butt fug. I saw her live once she sucked and pointed out she wasn't going to sing any of her hits because she 'wasn't there for our entertainment" basically everyone was walking away it was so embarrassing.
